Pat gave you some very good information. With each tag you have the option to identify what name is to be used in a sentence. As you are talking the outputting of death and burial tag information, for married females, if you set the death tag to use the females married name, and then run a individual narrative report outputting only the death and burial tags, you will produce a report using the name associated with the death tag followed by the death and burial tags' sentences. An example:

Anna (Ann) Margaret Schulteis. Anna died at the age of 79 at 9:40 in the evening on Tue. 14 Jul 1992 at Mequon Care Center, Mequon, Wisconsin. She is buried in St. Boniface Catholic Cemetery, Germantown. The burial location is Section 3, Row 6, Plot 29-B2 next to her husband Oliver and east of her parents Joseph and Anna (Ott) Siegl.

This does not come free for you need to identify to the death tag, and burial tag is you wish, the name the person was buried under. In most cases this applies only to the female partner. If you have not already done so, use the PE and filter for married females and then one by one change the name associate with the death tag. If you will only be outputting the burial tag, you will need to change, as you did with the death tag, the name associated with that tag to.

Have used this report many times when looking up vital death records at a court house or religious/civil cemetery records.
